HDFFV-5919 - GMQS: h5diff - The number of object difference is not consistent between dataset and group/type when attribute(s) have differences
Description:
Object differences are not consistent between dataset and group/datatype when their attribute(s) have differences. This is because attribute(s) differences is not accumulated to group or datatype object’s difference, but accumulated to dataset difference.
To fix, do not accumulate attribute difference to dataset difference. This is referred to h5diff’s default behavior and also past report from users that users were confused by the accumulated behavior. (also can’t figure out only for dataset difference , also hard to spot dataset difference when it has lots of attributes or differences)
This also lead to fix inconsistent format indicating difference between dataset and group/datatype object.
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), koala (linux64-LE), ostrich (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), linew (solaris-BE), Windows (32-LE cmake), cmake (jam)
HDFFV-7693 - h5diff produces different behavior between versions: 1.8.3 and 1.8.6
Description:
There were two issues on this.
One was not displaying all the comparable objects if non-comparable
object/attribute exist and compared before comparables ones. This issue
occurred after 1.8.4 release. This is the issue from user.
The other issue was not displaying all the comparable attributes,
if non-comparable object/attribute exist and compared ahead. This issue
were exist even before 1.8.4 release. So it's possible some attribute
comparison may have not displayed correctly in the past, if non-comparable
data were exist in common object.
Fixed h5diff to display all the comparable object and attribute regardless
of non-comparables.
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), koala (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), linew (solaris-BE), Cmake (jam, Windows)
Fixed CHICAGO: Bug 2121 - h5diff - incorrect and lack of output for the
different set of attributes (different number and names)
Description:
Previously h5diff compared attributes correctly only when two objects have
the same number of attributes and attribute names are identical.
This fix covers all other cases.
Also didn't display useful information about attribute difference.
This fixes both issues.
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), amani (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), linew (solaris-BE)
bugzilla 1754: h5diff: support comparing through links.
(original check-in svn revision #18164)
Description:
fix the hang issue in parallel mode when compare external-link.
add --no-dangling-links option.
add test cases (#450-#459) relate to the new option.
improve test script to check exit code.
update --help relate to the new options.
correct some indentations.
Tested:
h5committest (jam, amani and linew)
The name of the files are now given by its full name relative to $srcdir
To avoid the printing of the complete full path of the test file, that hides
all the other parameters for long paths, the printing of the command line
is done first in TESTING with the name only of the test file, not its full path
the printing in the expected output that had the file name was removed as well as 3 tests that tested error messages in which the file name was present
tested: linux (in 2 different build directories relative to $srcdir), solaris
